Petameter


A petameter (Pm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to 1 quadrillion meters (1 petameter = 10¹⁡ meters). This unit is extremely large and is used mainly in astronomy and theoretical physics to describe vast distances, such as those between stars or galaxies. For example, one petameter is about 105.7 light years. Since it measures such enormous distances, the petameter is not used in everyday life or common scientific applicationsβ€”it’s mostly used in discussions about the scale of the universe.


Yard


A yard is a unit of length used mainly in the United States, the United Kingdom, and some other countries. One yard equals 3 feet or 36 inches, which is about 0.91 meters. Yards are often used to measure things like fabric, sports fields, or short distances. For example, an American football field is 100 yards long. The abbreviation for yard is "yd". While the metric system is widely used worldwide, yards are still common in everyday life and certain industries in countries that use the imperial system.
